Come June 1st, Saskatchewan residents will be paying less for most generic prescription drugs.

The provincial government is implementing a plan to lower all generic drug prices which will result in savings to residents and the provincial Drug Plan.

To this point, Saskatchewan residents have been paying anywhere between 50-70 % of the brand name price for generic drugs in the province.

 

With the new plan being implemented....one can expect to pay 45 % by June 1st and 35% by April 1 2012.
